Parts for your 2024 Mitsubishi Asx-Coil springs

2024 Mitsubishi ASX coil-springs: what they do and how to look after them

Coil-springs are absolutely fitted to the 2024 Mitsubishi ASX. Technical references such as Mitsubishi’s 2024 ASX specifications and workshop literature list a MacPherson strut front suspension and an independent rear setup, both of which use coil-springs to support the vehicle and control ride height. Parts catalogues for the model also list front and rear coil-springs across the range.

On this ASX, the coil-springs carry the weight of the vehicle, help keep the ride height correct, and work with the struts and shocks to soak up bumps. That means better grip, steadier steering, and a calmer cabin on rough Aussie and Kiwi roads. Healthy springs also keep alignment angles closer to spec, which helps the tyres wear evenly and the safety systems do their best work.

While coil-springs aren’t a typical “replace by mileage” item, they should be inspected at each service. A quick look for corrosion, cracked paint, broken pigtail ends, or a sagging side can catch issues early. If the ASX regularly carries heavy loads, tows, or sees corrugated roads or beach driving, keep an extra eye on them—salt and grit can speed up corrosion.

When replacement time comes, it’s best practice to change coil-springs in axle pairs to maintain balance and ride height. Consider new strut mounts, insulators, and bump stops at the same time, then follow up with a wheel alignment. Compressing springs is hazardous without the right gear, so most owners leave the job to a qualified technician with a proper spring compressor and torque specs.

• Common signs they need attention: the ASX sits lower on one corner, clunks over bumps, feels floaty or nervous in bends, or shows unusual tyre wear.
• Care tips: rinse the underbody after beach driving, avoid overloading, and report any sudden change in ride height or noises straight away.

Treated well, ASX coil-springs can last many years and well past 150,000 km, but condition and usage matter more than the odometer. Regular inspections as part of scheduled servicing keep the ride tidy and the handling predictable.

Popular questions about 2024 Mitsubishi ASX coil-springs

Do the 2024 ASX models have coil-springs front and rear?
Yes. The platform uses coil-springs at both ends in conjunction with struts/shocks. That setup supports the body, sets ride height, and keeps the tyres planted for everyday comfort and control.

When should ASX coil-springs be replaced?
There’s no fixed interval. Replace them if they’re cracked, broken, heavily corroded, or the ride height has sagged. Many last well beyond 150,000 km, but frequent loads, rough roads, or salt exposure can shorten their life. Inspect at every service.

Can only one coil-spring be changed?
It’s strongly recommended to replace springs in axle pairs. Fitting one new spring against one old spring can cause uneven ride height and unsettled handling. Pair replacement keeps the ASX feeling balanced and predictable.
